HAVOC Ridges - Safe Havens for ice-associated Flora and Fauna in a Seasonally ice-covered Arctic Ocean (a Norwegian partner in the MOSAiC campaign http://www.mosaicobservatory.org/). The main objective is to Understand the role of sea-ice ridges in the Arctic sea-ice system when the ice becomes thinner and level ice melts in summer

MIXsTRUCT - Impact of mixotrophs on the structure of the marine pelagic food web. The project aims to understand the role of mixotrophy for structuring marine pelagic food webs in order to obtain a more complete understanding of how microbial processes link to global scale elemental cycling.

The Nansen Legacy (http://nansenlegacy.org) Integrated research project on climate and ecosystem change in the Barents Sea and adjacent Arctic Basin. The project is interdisciplinary and covers all aspects from physical processes to living resources. Ten Norwegian research institutions are involved in the project and our task is to understand the Arctic marine microbial food web structure and function.
